Chapter 918: Predicting the Box Office

The Ministry of Culture's ban on Xiao Yunhai can be said to be a failure. At present, because of the decisive battle in the American music circle, Xiao Yunhai has become a hero of Chinese fans. There are posts talking about him everywhere on the Internet, although they are all used by Yun Huang. Name, but who does not know that Emperor Yun is Xiao Yunhai.

But the Ministry of Culture had no choice. The Emperor Yun was just a nickname. He didn’t directly mention Xiao Yunhai’s name, nor did he have an image of him. The Ministry of Culture had nothing to do with it.

"Director Xiao, the Mayan civilization said that 2012 is the end of the world. How will your film present this disaster?"

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "Tsunami, earthquake, mudslide, volcanic eruption, etc. can all be well expressed. The protagonist of this movie is disaster, and we actors are only supporting roles. In order to bring shocking effects to everyone, " 2012" will have 1,800 special effects shots, accounting for more than 50% of the total length of the film. I have used more than 300 special effects artists, modelers, animators, and compositors. Hehe, if I can't make a movie that shocks everyone, I will never give up."

"You once said that "2012" will break the box office record of "Battle for Aliens". How confident are you in that?"

Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said, "I'm 100% sure that I will be the world box office champion. My goal now is to see the world's first 3D movie. Can the box office exceed $15 billion?"

"I rely on it, isn't it?"

"15 billion dollars, is Emperor Yun crazy?"

Not to mention those reporters, even Liang Hui and Li Xuanwu turned their heads and glanced at Xiao Yunhai in surprise.

Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and said with a smile: "Do you think I'm bragging? Haha, it doesn't matter, this is human nature. When you really feel the shock of 3D movies in the cinema, you will feel It's not difficult to break through the $15 billion box office."

"Director Xiao, when is "2012" expected to be completed?"

Xiao Yunhai said: "Actually,

There are not many actors' roles, including the protagonist. It is not difficult to perform, but the difficulty lies in the special effects production in the later stage. To this end, we have done a lot of preparatory work in the early stage. We have built seven green screen studios, and the rent is expensive. What you said about finishing, I think it will take less than a month. "

"Mr. Xiao, your song has been at No. 1 on the American Singles Chart for ten weeks. Do you have anything to say about that?"

Xiao Yunhai was stunned for a moment, and then said indifferently: "Really? I don't care much. Of course it's good to break the record, it doesn't matter if it can't be broken. Not this time, I'll talk about it next time. Today is the launch conference of "2012" On the spot, don't ask about other things."

After the reporters asked Xiao Yunhai more than ten questions in a row, they turned their target to the celebrity next to him.

The whole press conference lasted for more than two hours. The problems were one after another, and each superstar had a lot of topics.

If Xiao Yunhai hadn't forcibly ended the press conference, I don't know when it would have been.

At lunch, Yu Yuexian asked, "Director Xiao, can the box office of our "2012" really exceed 15 billion? Why do I feel like I'm listening to a myth?"

In the crew, Yu Yuexian spoke very well, even if he knew Xiao Yunhai again, he would still call him Director Xiao.

Li Xuanwu said: "Yeah. Not to mention China, even in Hollywood, there is no major director who dares to say that his film can surpass "Aliens", let alone a box office of 15 billion US dollars. . This sounds like an astronomical number to me."

Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "What I said is true, I'm not kidding. It's not impossible to reach 15 billion US dollars, and even 20 billion US dollars at the box office is not impossible."

"how come?"

"It's incredible."

Everyone felt a little unacceptable when they heard that the box office of a movie might reach 20 billion.

Xiao Yunhai put down his chopsticks and said, "We can make a calculation. "2012" is the first 3D movie in the history of world cinema, and the ticket price will be three times that of an ordinary movie. The box office of "Battle of the Aliens" is 62 100 million US dollars, as long as the number of movies entering our "2012" theaters is equivalent to it, then 15 billion US dollars or even 20 billion US dollars is no longer out of reach."

Liang Hui looked at Xiao Yunhai with a confident face and asked, "Can you guarantee that everyone will go to the 3D movie?"

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Mr. Liang, if you are a movie fan, you can experience the city collapse, volcanic eruption, tsunami and other disasters by spending a few tens of dollars more. Would you like to go?"

Liang Hui said: "Of course. Can 3d really do this?"

Xiao Yunhai nodded and said: "The previous 3D technology was not mature at all. After our magic, fantasy and Tsinghua University's technical research, we have achieved this perfectly. Everyone, "2012" will create a new era of film, we The name of the film is likely to appear in the history of world film, so please cherish this opportunity and make this film well."

After listening to Xiao Yunhai's words, everyone was refreshed and nodded in unison.

"2012" film officially started in Shanghai.

Because the molds in the movie were not finished yet, Xiao Yunhai planned to shoot all the real scenes first, and then go to the big green screen studio of Hengdian Film and Television City to shoot special effects shots.

From January 12th to 27th, Xiao Yunhai took the crew to many cities around the world for filming and shooting, and finally came to New York, America.

As soon as they came out of the airport, American reporters who had known the news for a long time gathered around, put the long gun and short barrel to Xiao Yunhai's mouth, and asked various questions, but they were dismissive of the other actors, even American The veteran first-line actor Mick ignored it.

Everyone is a leader in the entertainment industry, how have they ever been treated like this, and they all shook their heads and smiled bitterly.

No way, who made Xiao Yunhai beat all the musicians in America yesterday and broke the record of the king of rock and roll.

That's right, three months have passed since the release of the first single "billiejean" until today.

For thirteen weeks, Xiao Yunhai used his previous Michael Jackson and Elvis songs to secure the No. 1 spot on the singles chart, and achieved the most dazzling results in the North American music scene, and the miracle still continues, because his nine songs are still There are two that have not been released.

Last night, Vincent shouted excitedly on the phone to Xiao Yunhai.

The reason why he persuaded Xiao Yunhai to promote in this way was just to sell more single albums.

Although he thought Xiao Yunhai's songs were all very good, he didn't expect to achieve such a result.

In fact, by the fifth track, Vincent did not release a single, because some fans on the Internet expressed strong dissatisfaction with his way of making money with Xiao Yunhai's songs. Vincent was worried that it would appear if this continued. Problem, it just stopped.

However, he is already very satisfied. Xiao Yunhai's album has not been officially released, and the profit has already reached 440 million.

According to the 5:5 distribution agreement with Xiao Yunhai, he can get 220 million US dollars from it.
